 Cindy Tanaka - 9/3/2009
Product: Women's Core Fitness Class
I have been taking HOP's Women's Core Fitness Class for three months and I love it! In HOP's one-hour class, I have a harder work out doing varied exercises at the different stations than a straight cardio session at the gym. Kevin Chang is an exceptional trainer and can actually make exercise fun! He motivates you to push yourself but always emphasizes proper stance and technique to avoid injury and teach you the right and effective way to exercise. He provides individualized attention to each client, noting their particular strengths and areas of concern. As a result of HOP training, I feel more energetic and notice I m toning in areas. I plan to continue my
trainings here and recommend HOP to anyone who wants to get fit.

Product: Athletic Performance
My name is Kapena Wilson and my son Joseph Wilson, who attends St. Louis School, is a client of yours. I am impressed with his progress through HOP training. He was home on Kauai this past weekend and I had some one-on-one time with him where I noticed an increase in his abilities. He attended a football clinic up here hosted by the University of Hawaii. He impressed the coaches with his performance and his explosiveness. Much mahalo. Keep up the good work.

 Sarah Nonaka - 4/28/2009
Product: Athletic Performance
I have been attending HOPS for almost four years now. During this time, I felt like I have gotten stronger, more agile, and far less injury prone, thus allowing me to become more confident when I play. The different workouts/circuits that I do whenever I go to HOPS ensure that my body does not adapt to a routine. I also appreciate the fact that my workout is custom-tailored to whatever my goals/needs are at the time.
Speaking of specificity, because the number of athletes in each session are so small, it is easy for the staff to point out flaws to be corrected and praise someone when they do something right. HOPS is my favorite kind of workout because not only have I never dreaded going there, but I walk out of the one hour session tired (in a good way), rewarded, and feeling like I have definitely bettered my physical being.

 Katie Murillo
Company: United States Army
Product: Personal Training
For the last several months I have been trying to lose the weight that I had gained during my pregnancy. All was going well up until a few months ago I hit a plateau. I was eating right and exercising but stopped seeing any kind of results. That's when I got together with Hawaii Optimum Performance. Within a month I had lost 2 inches off my hips, 1.5 inches off my waist, and 4% body fat! That was the most progress I had gone through since I started working out.
I am thankful for Kevin and Ross and what they have helped me to achieve. Not only did they help me break through my plateau with fast results, they also taught me the correct form, technique and exercises that would target my goal areas. A big plus for me was how they explained what muscles were being exercised and how that helped me to feel the burn! Now I have the knowledge and confidence to continue doing what I have learned on my own.

 Lynne Tom - Parent of Julia Tom
My daughter was introduced to Hawaii Optimum Performance by her club volleyball coach. The HOP program has made her noticeably stronger and her success has encouraged other parents to put their daughters in this program. While conditioning with her teammates has made the hard work more fun, she has gained core strength and balance. She is more agile and has more stamina. In my opinion, the program has helped her become a more confident volleyball player.
In the past, the word "exercise" was not part of my vocabulary even though I had been told by my doctor a year earlier that I needed to exercise with weights. Ross and Kevin encouraged the moms to join their women's core fitness class and I took the challenge. The small classes allow us to receive individual attention emphasizing proper technique so that we don't injure ourselves. Our circuit training stations are increasing in intensity and vary each week. I've gained core strength, balance and muscle tone. I'm stronger, feel better and have more energy. Exercising is now part of my weekly routine. HOP is the secret to my success and wellbeing.

Kevin and Ross at HOP training have helped me reach my goals of becoming stronger, quicker and more explosive, thus making me a better athlete. On top of designing challenging workouts, they also explain why you are doing certain movements and which muscles are targeted. HOP training is fun and beneficial, and has helped me to continue playing basketball at the collegiate level.

 Brandon and Lawana Collier - Parents of Quintin and Madison Collier
When it comes to life, school and sports, parents want to give their kids every advantage to succeed. Sending our two children to Hawaii Optimum Performance gives them a physical advantage in competitive sports to help them succeed. As former athletes, my wife and I understand the importance of a strong base and a quick first step. We've attended other speed clinics where hundreds of kids run aimlessly through a speed ladder or over cones. What impressed us most about HOP is no matter what the class size, the staff covered proper technique in every drill that they do. They also make individual corrections while the drill is going on. The qualified HOP staff created a challenging yet fun workout program specifically designed for kids who are still growing. HOP works with athletes to be physically prepared so as to prevent injuries. Our daughter has also started attending HOP clinics designed specifically for volleyball. The techniques she learns and practices at these clinics give her an obvious physical advantage over other athletes her age. We have recommended HOP to other families with young athletes looking for a program to improve their children's athletic performance and prevent injuries.
